The unique features of the biology and ecology of jellyfish that enable them to bloom also make them successful invasive species and, in a few places around the world, jellyfish have become problematic. As man increasingly populates the world’s coastlines, interactions between humans and jellyfish are rising, often to the detriment of coastal-based industries such as tourism, fishing and power generation. However we must not lose sight of the fact that jellyfish have been forming blooms in the oceans for at least 500 million years, and are an essential component of normal, healthy ocean ecosystems. Here many of the world’s leading jellyfish experts explore the science behind jellyfish blooms. We examine the unique features of jellyfish biology and ecology that cause populations to ‘bloom and bust’, and, using case studies, we show why jellyfish are important to coastal and ocean ecosystem function. We outline strategies coastal managers can use to mitigate the effects of blooms on coastal industries thereby enabling humans to coexist with these fascina | | 出版日期 | Book 2014 | | 关键词 | Blooms; Ctenophores; Jellyfish; Medusae; Nonindigenous marine jellyfish; Model invertebrates | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-94-007-7015-7 | | isbn_softcover | 978-94-024-0198-1 | | isbn_ebook | 978-94-007-7015-7 | | copyright | Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht 2014 |
